Warning and cautions

CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.

The graphic symbols on the back cover of the set mean the following:

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsuiated "dangerous voltage" within the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.

INSTALLATION

LOCATE the receiver in the room where direct light does not strike the screen. Total darkness or a reflection on the picture screen can cause eyestrain. Soft and indirect lighting is recommended for comfortable viewing. ALLOW enough space between the receiver and the wall to permit proper ventilation. AVOID excessive warm locations to prevent possible damage to the cabinet or component failure.

CONNECTION

This TV receiver can be connected to 230V- 50Hz, NEVER connect to DC supply or any other power.

AUTOMATIC DEGAUSSING

All colour television receivers are sensitive to magnetic influences, usually caused by either moving the receiver from one place to another or using certain electrical appiiances near the receiver. This residual magnetism as it is called, sometimes causes distortion which gives rise to "blotchy" areas of colour in the picture. To avoid these effects the receiver incorporates an automatic degaussing circuit which operates for a short while immediately each time the receiver is switched on using the mains switch. This circuit removes any residual magnetism in the metal parts of the picture tube and therefore ensures that each time the receiver is switched "ON" using the Mains switch, the purity of the colours displayed on the screen remain true and lifeiike. If the set is moved or faced in a different direction, the mains switch must be switched off at least 10 minutes in order that the automatic degaussing circuit operates properly.

Warning and cautions

CAUTION

Never tamper with any components inside your set, or any other adjustment controls not mentioned in this manuai. All television receivers are high voltage instruments. Your PICTURE TUBE is highly evacuated. Ifbroken, glass fragments will be violently expelled. Scratching, shipping or undue pressure is dangerous and should be avoided. When you dust or wipe the PICTURE TUBE FACE or CABINET, the power cord should be pulled out from the wall then wipe the receiver with a dry soft cloth. Ali "inside work" on your receiver should be performed only by Professional Service Personnel.

ASPECT RATIO DESCRIPTION

When using the DVD with the internal TV, select 4 3/LB.

The following information applies only when the DVD output is connected to an external TV.

4 3/PS (PS = Pan and Scan) You may select if you have a normal aspect ratio (4:3) TV, although the NORMAL/LB (letter box) is a more common choice. In PS mode, widescreen material will fill the screen, but at the expense of chopping off extreme left and right edges of the original film picture. For this feature to work, the disc must be specially coded. Such discs are uncommon. 4 3/LB (LB = Letter Box) You may select this if you have a normal aspect ratio (4:3) TV. Widescreen material will be shown in pure unaltered form, allowing the entire picture area of the original film to be viewed without any side cropping. Black bars will appear above and below the picture. 16 9 You may select this if you have a widescreen (16:9) TV. Back bars may still appear above and below the picture even if using a widescreen TV. This is because some film directors prefer to use ultra widescreen aspect ratios e.g.

2.35:1. This will normally be indicated on the DVD packaging.
